I use the autotools.  The output is the same as the one I reported a
couple mails ago, that's why I didn't include it again.


harfbuff_too is added in qtbase-1.patch in a specific fix:
/usr/src/mxe/src/qtbase-1.patch:+    mingw:static:contains(LIBS_PRIVATE, 
-lfreetype):LIBS_PRIVATE += -lharfbuzz_too
Maybe you meant you only fixed this for qmake?


Independently of the build system, this needs to gives the appropriate
libs:

$ i686-w64-mingw32.static-pkg-config freetype2 --libs --static
-lharfbuzz -lcairo -lfontconfig -lglib-2.0 -lusp10 -lmsimg32 -lgdi32 -lpixman-1 
-lexpat -lfreetype -lbz2 -lpng16 -lz -lws2_32 -lole32 -lwinmm -lshlwapi -lpcre  
-lintl -liconv ^^ add -lfreetype here

Cheers!
